Cutting in line
B. Why do you think these are undemocratic? Why do you think these are happening?
Basically, all of these are violating the rights of the people involved in the said
practices. It limits the rights that everyone must possess. Observing these kinds of
practices take away the freedom of the mass.
Vote buying happens because one candidate wants the power all for himself, the
alleged person who had his vote bought loses his chance of own judgement of who is the
rightful person for the certain position. The press is being oppressed because it reveals
some truth that higher authorities wouldn’t like the people to know. In order to stop the
drug addiction, taking one’s life is their solution. Discrimination has never left the scene
when one is different or doesn’t fit in the description of being normal for other people
then you don’t belong. Cutting in line makes the person doing it feel superior than the
other people queuing.
COMPOSITION
A. Write an action plan to address these undemocratic practices using ICT and networks.
Living in a generation where technology is considered as part of the daily lives of
people, it will be a huge help in addressing such issues. The internet is widely used and
can be a great place to advocate something easily. To address the above mentioned
undemocratic practices, I plan to create infographics where people can easily understand
the content of what I am addressing. Included in these infographics are illustrations,
graphs, statistics, and information pertaining to the undemocratic practices. Both positive
and negative information about the practices will be included to avoid being biased.
Before creating the said plan, I will do an in-depth study or research about the
practices to have a fuller grasp of what I am addressing to. After creating the
infographics, I would post it in a social media platform where it can be easily accessed,
be seen, be easily shared, and passed by other people.
